Hi guys and Gals....

I'm coming down to Adelaide on the 14th Sept till the 20th.

Just wondering if there are any cruises or anything on while I'm there and if anyone minds if I tag along with them as I won't have my car unfortunately..

Otherwise I would like to just catch up with a couple people and see what the Adelaide scene is like..

Anyone want to give me a tour????

Thanks for your replies guys.. A tour through the hills would be great!!

Hq, did that used to be Heaven?

Mars, is that the gay bar or am I getting it mixed up with another? Woolshed?

Heard good things about both, so will be checking them out...

I'm actually coming down cos my uncle needs an operation of sorts and I have to look after him..lol

so he may or may not want to join me out and about.

When is the show on and how long does it go for?? lol and yeah coming from Alice, I think the show will way out-do anything we get here. The show here is absolute puss!! Only been to Sydney show, many, many years ago.

Anyone who doesn't mind giving me a tour or whatever please let me know how to contact you when I get there.

he will go to the adelaide show and be like w t f is this ... have you been to melbourne show? it rocks adelaide show anyday lol

Not necessarily... but I've noticed everyone on the east coast bags out Adelaide and there's nothing sadder than an Adelaidian bagging out their own city. No offence there kiet, but self-esteem starts at home.. how's Adelaide ever gonna get better if everyone just packs up and leaves the city.

Have a quick read of this site mate.. it might change what you think about our city.

ok so your from alice springs! show started this friday 6th sept - the 12th sept. Its at the Royal Adelaide Show grounds.. depending on what music like, hQ is probly one of the best in Adelaide, there also ISOBAR on hindly they play alright rnb, if your into the karaoke scene buda bar is good with a club upstairs and you have an option to hire out your owns private rooms for karaoke/drinking area incase you get tired from dancing. =D

Adelaide is a nice city - its quiet and peaceful easy living everything is close together. Problem is theres too many scums... but they're everywhere anyways. Melbourne is nice... but too busy busy rush rush to want to live there and everything is too far apart.

lol yeah i wouldnt move from adelaide i like it here but we need more entertainment!!!!

You'll get your chance to vote for entertainment in the city next year. :/

In my opinion, Adelaide has alot more going for it than many other cities (not just in Australia but abroad).. the only thing it lacks deeply is some sort of self-confidence. Going back to the State Bank collapse, Adelaide and Melbourne were both hit just as hard.. the difference was that Melbourne pulled out of the mess (and grew stronger with kennett) and we didn't. At one stage, the news on tv used to mention Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide in the same breath.. nowadays it's Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and perhaps Perth. What happened to us being the third largest colony in Australia? Some where along the lines we were derailed.

Yeh Hq used to be heaven, it has about 7 different rooms, rnb in one, dance house everything.

Woolshed is shit, Mars Bar is a gay club haha

Depending on how old you are, Dog n Duck and the Duke of York are both good, teens to early 20's sorta bracket

If a bit older, then The Grand at Glenelg is good both sat and sun nights

Yeh I love Adelaide, everyone knows someones cousins mate or something when you meet people!

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
